rebuilding credit

My current score is 626.  

 

I had three hospital bills in collections that I recently paid last month.  I had no idea they were there. They still show unpaid, how long does that take?  I also have a nys tax lein showing for a very small amount, that was paid last year.   We moved,  they kept sending to the wrong address, once it came to us it was paid, but I guess too late.  I have student loans and a few credit cards im working hard to pay off.  I would like to buy a house so I need to quickly get my number up.  Any advice?

Before you app think...
Have you done your research of the CC?
Does it fit your spending?
Do you have a plan for the bonus w/o going into debt?
Can you afford the AF?
Do you know the cards benefits? Is it worth the HP?
